Default TO much injector!!

What would happen if you installed say 36lbs in a non stroked or boosted car. You would think if calibrated correct it shouold be fine but i was just wondering.

correct! ...if tuned correctly, you can run 36# injectors....question would be why!? 24# would be fine with your combo in your sig!

stock cars often have trouble with over sized injectors. you arent flowing enough air at idle to properly atomize the fuel, you get loading up problems, poor idle, stalling, and flooding issues
